Chapter 79 My face works!
Xiao Wenyan was also surprised and said, "Grandpa, is Yuan Yuan going to help us? Didn't you say that the Yuan family wouldn't easily take action?"
Wu Guozhang said with a smile, "They must have thought that the marriage with Nalan was a sure thing, but they didn't expect to be rejected by His Majesty. They must have been unsure."
While the two were talking, Yuan Yuan came over.
"Mr. Yuan, what brings you here?" Wu Guozhang stood up to greet him with a smile.
Xiao Wenyan also cupped his hands and said enthusiastically, "Brother Yuan!"
Yuan Yuan bowed in return and said, "Father-in-law Wu, the eldest prince, I'm sure you're worried about raising funds. I'm here to offer some advice..."
"Oh? Master Yuan, do you have a solution? That 's great, you are right. I wonder what good plan Master Yuan has?" Wu Guozhang asked curiously.
Yuan Yuan smiled and looked at the attendant beside him and said, "Please ask Mr. Wu to dismiss the attendants..."
Wu Guozhang sent the attendants away, and Yuan Yuan asked, "Do you two intend to pay the one million taels of gold and then find an excuse?"
Wu Guozhang looked at Yuan Yuan in surprise.
"Absolutely not! If I'm not mistaken, this is a trap set by the Holy Lord!" Yuan Yuan said in a low voice.
The two people looked at Yuan Yuan in surprise.
"If my guess is correct, your majesty is acting out this drama with Grand Tutor Yan. I heard that after Grand Tutor Yan returned to Kyoto, he went to the Imperial Palace to meet the emperor."
"So, Your Majesty must have known about the famine in northern Henan a long time ago. There have been rumors about the corruption of Wu Guozhang, and each prince has a background. So, Your Majesty is using the name of fundraising to find out the forces behind each prince. Since the time is urgent, all forces want to mobilize funds, and there will definitely be clues. Your Majesty's explanation can help us find out..."
After Yuan Yuan said this, Wu Guozhang and Xiao Wenyan's faces turned pale with fright.
They really didn't think of this level.
"Then what should we do?" asked Wu Guozhang.
"My father shouldn't have this idea! He doesn't like intrigue. Brother Yuan, are you worrying too much?" Xiao Wenyan asked.
Yuan Yuan sneered and said, "Prince, you are still naive. The assassination case has already sounded the alarm for His Majesty! Our Majesty is just straightforward, not stupid!"
After that, he said to him, "I have a solution, maybe it's a win-win solution..."
As Yuan Yuan spoke, he waved at them and then spoke in a low voice.
…
Xie Xunfeng returned to the hostage house.
Jing Fei said anxiously, "Sir, you are finally back. The Fourth Prince, Xiao Wenqin is already waiting. Prince Guan is entertaining you now."
It seems that what the emperor said was not wrong.
Following Jing Fei in, the servants and maids inside were taking care of the hostage house in an orderly manner.
After seeing Xie Xunfeng, they all bowed to him.
After walking a few steps, I heard Guan Chong's loud bragging.
"Fourth Prince, let me tell you. I'm not exaggerating! That day in Hua Man Lou, if I hadn't put pressure on them with words, they wouldn't have been defeated so quickly. My brother and I are brothers who are united and can break iron with strength! If you have anything to say, tell me! Fourth Prince, go out and ask around. In this Longyang City, whoever sees me must call me brother!"
"elder brother!"
Xie Xunfeng had just walked to the door.
Guan Chong was startled when he saw him, so he said to Xie Xunfeng.
"Brother, the Fourth Prince wants to see you, I am helping him entertain you. The morning court ended a long time ago, why did you come back just now? Did you go to see the Third Princess? "
At this time, the fourth prince Xiao Wenqin also stood up.
"Thank you, Proton. Sorry for disturbing you by visiting me."
Xie Xunfeng smiled innocently at Xiao Wenqin, and said with a cupped hand, "Fourth Prince, you are too polite. If you hadn't come, I would have come to thank you."
Xiao Wenqin looked at Xie Xunfeng with some surprise.
"You spoke up for me before." Xie Xunfeng reminded.
Xiao Wenqin cupped his hands and said, "It's just a trivial matter, not worth mentioning, and I didn't help you at all."
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "Fourth Prince, you didn't come here to greet me this time, did you?"
Xiao Wenqin nodded and said, "Xie Zhizi should have heard in the palace that the emperor wants to raise funds. I also want to help the emperor, but I have no one to rely on. I heard that Xie Zhizi has a way to make money, so I want to ask for advice . I wonder if Xie Zhizi can give me some advice."
Xie Xunfeng looked at Xiao Wenqin and said, "Fourth Prince, I'm afraid you are kidding. I'm just a simpleton, how can I have any ability to make money?"
Xiao Wenqin stood up and walked in front of Xie Xunfeng and said, "Xie Zhizi, I know very well that you are not a fool. To be honest, I have been paying attention to you before, but you have been hiding your strength and biding your time, so I never noticed it."
"It was not until you came to prominence that I realized that you are not stupid at all. On the contrary, you are wise in a foolish way. Those people in the court who claim to be smart are nothing but jokes in front of you!"
"Xie Hongzi, to be honest, when I see you I think of myself. It's just that you are more unfortunate than me. So I think that people like us who have no one to rely on can only rely on ourselves! Rely on friends. Xie Hongzi, I need your help. I believe that I can be useful to you!"
What Xiao Wenqin said was direct and sincere.
Xie Xunfeng glanced at Xiao Wenqin, and then said, "Even if I have a way to make money, it can't solve the urgent need of one million taels."
Xiao Wenqin said to Xie Xunfeng, "Please teach me, Xie Yuzi..."
Guan Chong said seriously, "Brother, please help the Fourth Prince. He is a good man. He is a pitiful good man. If you really can't help him, please help him for my sake, okay?"
Xie Xunfeng glanced at Guan Chong and said, "Now that you've said that, how can I not help you?"
When Guan Chong heard Xie Xunfeng say this, he immediately hugged Xie Xunfeng and said, "Brother, am I so honorable? Do you agree?"
After that, Guan Chong said to Xiao Wenqin, "Fourth Prince, what I said was right, wasn't it? I wasn't bragging. I have face in front of my eldest brother, so it works!"
Xiao Wenqin also had a bright look on his face as he looked at Xie Xunfeng.
Xie Xunfeng said to Xiao Wenqin, "Actually, it's not difficult to raise this one million taels. You just need to..."
